| (Song) A door, a knock, an answer Is how it all began Shall I fall and be like Eve Or like the Son of Man A new found dedication, A life no more for me, With humble heart and zealous love In Gods service I will always be Love the Father and his Son For they are just and true And join the flocks of God in praise In the family that Jehovah drew A little pool of water Into which I will step And there be plunged into a death I never will regret This public declaration, Through baptism does speak Of my earnest love for God And the need to reach all of the meek Serve Jehovah, do his work Complete all Jah says do And join the Sons of God in praise: "Abba, Father we love you... love you."

| When death and sorrow are no more, When war's a thing unknown... When Satan is at last destroyed, When we stand before God's throne... We'll live perfection for all time And never fall astray For in Gods love his people keep And all his laws obey So rest assured, please be at ease And know God's just and true The hope of life is ever strong It exists for those God drew Yet not for them alone-- the Bible says But for all within the tombs There's a promise for folks good and bad Thus the resurrection looms We will soon be people all taught by God In our Promised Lands at last Where not a single soul is ever sick When all sorrow is long past The dead will raise, the lame will walk Those once silenced will sing praise And the ones we mourn may be in our arms For an eternity of days. Psalm 37:29; Isaiah 35:5, 6; Matthew 5:5; John 5:28, 29; Revelation 21:3, 4 February 2002 |
| (Song) True friends are precious gifts from God Of this I know And through their tenderness and love God's fruitage show [Chorus] Through work and play and every day We make our stand To serve Jehovah with our lives And hand in hand Yet more than friends Yes, Christian kin We've now become In unity with God above we're now as one [Chorus] For seeds were sown, as gifts that root near waters deep Firm in the Truth and harvest work to Jah we keep [Chorus] January 2002 |
| (Song) Into the rocker of retirement I cannot now recline I must submit to each requirement For through the marriage feast I dine Into your work I now must live Please help me carry out your ways All things to you I yearn to give And to praise you all my days And even through I wear your seal Upon my heart I sadly feel... [As if] My husband lives across the world His embrace I do not know Into myself I'm frequent' curled As my sorrows, daily, grow... [I cry] With you, my God I yearn to stay And to your ways abide My Lord, my God When is the day You'll call me to your side You're my God, and my best friend Holy God, you're the Shadows end Sovereign Lord and Creator of all Lord Most High, best friend... Lord Most High July 04, 2001 |
| Emotions are soaring as never before Shall I live by the Word or die by the sword Shall I muster up courage and quicken my pace Or falter and crumble and thus lose the race? My spirit is crying for strength which I lack My body and soul under Satan's attack! Refining and learning to live Jah's wise ways Yet missing the mark and counting my days. There's so much to learn, yet so little time Will I snap under pressure, commit the Great Crime? Spiritual suicide lurks lying in wait Abba, Father, remove from my sight Satan's bait...
